When do the clunking sounds occour?

Since coming back to the forum, it does seem full of this type of stuff. ?

Up to temp.. No volcanics! Sat in the car pinched the overflow and filled to the brim.. Warm air in car and I'm watching the radiator water just wobbling at the neck of the radiator. Thank you David, i think it was the symptoms you first described! So Havard, she seems to be working fine.. Im wanting it as a daily again, so next goal is a 333k then 500k It wouldn't be the same on a different engine but who knows! If it holds and doesn't overheat, polyurethane front lip and new alloys and the few spots of rust and little dents fixed with a full detail.. Hopefully that will incentivise this car to behave

Twisted it as described.. I see what you mean though. Water doesnt go down when squeezing the bottom pipe.. Still stays at the neck of radiator.. Gonna let it warm up again now though and see.. If the compression of the engine was going into the water wouldnt it be volcanic out of an uncapped radiator all the time, even when cold? Anyway ill report back in a sec

Sorry David, i did check.. I wasn't ignoring you or indeed allergic to answering.. Ill go take a pic right now

No gunk on any caps or the dipstick.. The only sure way is a sniff test i think.. :/

The car doesn't have an mot at the moment and I'm not insured on it, so i cant take it for a drive. Im going to do a sniff test next week. If its ok ill mot and see how it goes.. If the h/g has gone ill just ask keron for a engine swap, this engine has done 250k, but i think that the original time it overheated it must have blown the hg, the temp gauge had only just reached the top before i turned it off, so i was hoping for the best.. Oh well. Hopefully if it passes an mot with a blown head gasket i can drive it halfway to kerons and then green flag the remainder of the way

Sorry mate but afaik the 'radiator cap off park uphill and idling over' is a well known supra trick to remove air from the system..

Previous history of overheating.. Stopped using the car as i have others and im just getting round to fixing it.. So far : Okay so radiator replaced (original was fubar) and new rad cap. Compression test done and all figures are good. Filled radiator with water for now to identify if problem still exists. Ran the engine whilst continuing to fill radiator and the obvious bubbles appear and i keep filling.. Until full.. Bottom pipe from radiator takes a while to get hot but does get hot eventually.. Top hose is hot quite quickly. Temp gauge is halfway normal. Hot air in the car from matrix. No water on the floor (core plugs) Radiator cap still isn't fitted as i am trying to get air out still.. Suddenly water erupts high out of the radiator continually and doesn't seem to stop until i turn the engine off.. I put the rad cap on and started the car and it idled fine at normal temp.. I took the cap off from a distance after i turned off the car but still hot.. (I did it from a distance to be safe.. And it flew up in the air about 5 feet and i caught it. The radiator took another litre of water, must have been more air.. Just concerned about the water continually spewing up into the air repeatedly, like at least 6 inches into the air. More bleeding required? Or is it something else?

What about the stock supra decals that run down the doors?

What size tyres though? And have you had any rubbing?

Love the wheels, what tyre sizes are you running on them? More info regarding rolling arches please - did you just cut them and seal them or what?

It might help someone doing a search for "clonking sounds when braking" Considering UK Spec is not the title - it makes sense

Clonking when braking? Check your caliper carriers, one of mine was shot. Eventually you could grab the caliper by hand through the spokes of the alloy and wiggle it around. Replaced the carriers, and the caliper admittedly, and voila. Mine brakes were Jspec

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?sbk=1&nav=SEARCH&itemId=190881128284 Not sure about the mounting.. After searching there are different types of radiator.. Must keep looking!

So my n/a hasn't been on the road for some time. Last time i drove it the radiator cap broke and went down the radiator, after replacing the cap all was fine for about 2 days before it started overheating again. I parked it up and haven't looked at it since, as i had better things to do. Today i did a compression test to see if the overheating had caused gasket failure.. All cylinders were near enough 170 when cold, I'm happy with that.. They would be higher if the engine was up to temp obviously.. But no cylinder was down on pressure.. So i took the radiator out and found this: So thats obviously goosed. I found a few objects inside the radiator.. which is weird!!! But no sign of the little radiator nipple.. Hmm! Im sure a nice new radiator will fix the problem, how do the ebay radiators hold up? Does anyone recommend one particular type? Hopefully the little nipple from the radiator cap wont pose any future problems..

Actually there is a larger flaw than what scott mentioned. Once she eats them successfully which prompts you to build a time machine and go back in time.. You cannot eat the chocolate.. Because if you do the time machine that you came back in never existed.. So where does that put you?

Ive got pair of wider 16inch rears with good tread toyo tr1s.. If your interested x

What type of salary are you after? And what skills do you possess at present?

God himself wrote the bible.

I was looking on the web at motorbikes, and saw this place in St Helens, look what they have parked out front in one of there pictures? Who are you?

Why? And couldn't you just pull the fuse?

If you still have it in July PM me, and ill buy it.
